Nice work!

I do wonder, however, whether people really have issues with perf on any terminal emulator in 2026

I’ve been living in Terminal.app / zsh / tmux / vim for 15 years and have never once thought “this is slower than I want.”

Whoa, nice reminder of how filthy rich I and almost everyone I know are.

I'm not sure why there's so much negativity in this thread. The listed requirements were already basic table-stakes security standards. IMO, anyone not encrypting all user data at rest, requiring MFA, etc. is bush league.

I’d love to find a way to do something similar with neighboring dogs.

... and a car to haul all that stuff, and time to drive to the nearest Costco.

It really is a luxury that a ton of people can't afford.

That’ll end up in an arms race where you refine the gibberish to be more and more believable while the crawlers get better and better at detecting poison wells. The end state is where your fake pages are so close to the real thing that humans can’t tell the difference

Not with physical security either, I'm afraid.

They sort of do have that power. They have the ability to lower the max vehicle weight and eventually it gets lowered to where no real traffic can go over it. Grady talked about it in the video.

because one doesn't tend to get drunk on pie and then go beat up your wife or run over a pedestrian with your car. Is it biblical? No, but people rank sins by social impact out of habit.

You can also just use a hand mixer with only one beater inserted.

And has Optum conveniently forgotten to ship refills, but only for the expensive drugs? That happened to my wife on multiple occasions.

Or maybe they've rejected refill requests until right before your supply runs out, such that you have to go days without your meds while the new supply is shipped?

Optum is the shadiest shitshow I've ever dealt with.

> customers so inept that...

I used to think like that until I got to see some legacy systems in action. Sometimes it just makes financial sense to keep paying Larry and avoid a big rewrite.

You’re assuming that everyone in the office is a coworker.

I recommend Deviant Ollam’s YouTube channel for an entertaining way to expand your assumptions
